To set up your phone to receive picture messages or MMS, you have to call your network provider and request for the activation of your GPRS and MMS. You also have to request for the MMS settings for your phone.
When they send your settings, you have to save them and activate to be able to send and receive picture messages.
Make sure you also have a load when you send.

Perhaps you need to configure your LG optimus’s MMS. Just try to set up your LG optimus MMS manually. But you can’t just manually set up your MMS configuration unless you have given the name of your service provider and also your country. Anyway, these are the steps to do to manually set up your phone. Just search for APN and IP address of your service provider to fill up some of the details needed.

1. Go to your settings.2. Go to wireless and networks.
3. Press mobile networks
4. Then go to APN5. Then create a new APN and enter your desired name.6. Then click MMS proxy, then enter the IP address provided by your network proveder.
7. Then click MMS port, usually the port is 8080.
8. Then choose the Authentication type as none.9. Then select the apn type as mms then press okay then save.
10. Open your status bar and then click enable the data connections.
11. Then try to make your friend send you MMS.

Go to the MAIN menu. Open SETTINGS, then go to WIRELESS & NETWORKS and open this. Find MOBILE NETWORKS; select this. When this opens select DATA ENABLED. Close this, go to messages, and send yourself a picture to test if this works for you. If this does not work; then you will need to call your mobile provider.

Ive had the same problem, mine was because the APN (Access Network Points) needed to be updated. You can find that in your settings under mobile networks. call the company and ask them what your apn settings are.

My lg optimus says i have a picture message but doesn`t let me open it?

Yesterday my girlfriend decided to send me a mms message via a texting app that she has on her ipod. When i received the picture it showed it on my downswipe bar thing (alerts i guess) and i pressed on it to open it. When it opened it acted as if i was replying with an mms to a blank address or number. It never showed me the picture. And whenever I`m on my home screen it shows i have one New message. This being the mms and when i press the app it doesn`t show it at all.. im really confused please help.

I can`t receive pictures on LG optimus L70?

I can send them, but I can`t receive them. I am having trouble for 3 days and I just got the phone. It says it isn`t sending, but people are receiving them. And It keeps saying "Download" or "Retry 1/5 Try again" with a "Download" button which fails to downlaod and it then says "Retry 2/5 Try again". It does this til it gets to "5/5" and then restarts. Help please! This is really irritating.
